TEE RUPREME COURT.
Et viii Meet at StauntOn Monday
The Boycott Gases.

The Supreme Court of Appeals will
meet at Staunton on Monday, and will
at once proceed to the business before
it. Judge Fauntleroy has six opinions
ready to he handed down at the first
opportunity.
The president of the court, Judge
Lewis, is at the home of his brother,
Hon. John f. Lewis, in Rockingham.
Judge Lacy is at Alton. Judge Faun-
tleroy is in Richmond. Judge Rich
ardson is at his home near Marion.
Judge Hinton, if not off on summer
trip, is at Petersburg, where he lives.
In the case OF Crump against the
Commonwealth" the boycott case -
Judge Fauntleroy declined to grant a
writ Of error; then counsel applied to
Judge Lacy, who allowed it. This ap-
zeal will not be heard until the court
meets in Richmond, which is in No
yombor. A decision in this case is an
ticipaicd with great interest because Of
the new points Of law now to be passed
upon for the first time certainly by
our Supreme Court. This is really a
test case. The Judgment of the Hust-
ings Court against Mr.. Crump is that

VIRGINIA TROOPS 40 go NORrIa
Gcsion OF tne state Military Board
Yesterday.

The State Military Board met at the
Capitol yesterday at 10 \. NJ. Besides
General Mcdonald, who presided, there
were present Secretary-of-the-C Common
wealth Flournoy, Brigadier-General
Anderson. Lieutenant Colonel Stern,
and MIR. William Writ Henry.
1t was decided to order four Virginia
companies (of fifty men each) to Phila-
dclphia nextweek, onthe occasion Of the
celebration Of the centennial anniver-
fary of the promulgation of the Consti-
tuition. as an escort to Governor Lee.
Virginia men were among the most
rromincnt promoters of the adoption
of the Constitution, and the board
thought the State should have some
representation on such a notable occa-
SION. Hence its action. Some other
States will send much larger bodies Of
troops. What commands will so have
not been determined, but it is probable
that one company from Winchester,
Alexandria. Portsmouth, and Rich
nond will be sent, under command OF
Major Nash. of the Fourth Virginia
rtpiment. Colonel Spotswood will
select the Richmond company, which
will likely have to be supplemented by
men from other commands to aggre-
cate the required number.

A senoo..Roon in 9 Prison.

A Trenton (N.J.) telegram says The
school for convicts at the State Prison,
the first ever attempted in this country,
was opened here this evening. A short
address was made TO the twenty-five con-
victs, who sat ut four rows OF desks, by
Deputy Keeper Hemsing, designed 10
stimulate desire for study in the
pupils. A. V. Stanley and Frank II.
Sidney, two well-educated prisoners,
have been delegated as teachers. The
attendance is optional. All the pupils
we're provided with states and books.
The session lasted two hours. As the
accommodations are meagre, it will re-
quire a division into four classes TO
accommodate all the conyicts who de-
sire TO attend.

Kenrico County Notes.

Things were remarkably quiet about
the county courthouse yesterday.
Several of the justices of the peace were
on hand, but there were no cases OF
rublic interest TO engage their atten-
ton.
The Board of Supervisors will meet
at II A. NJ. to-day, but they have only
routine matters to consider.
The County Court meets Monday.
There will be a regular grand jury, the
names of whom have been published in
the Dispatch, but there are no important
cases to be investigated. The one in
which most interest is felt is that OF
Robert Randolph, a colored man,
charged with shooting another colored
man. The wounds were trifling, and
the injured man is well. The Cleveland
case, with which the readers of the Dis
patch are familiar, will be called for
trial.

How Mrs. Cleveland Appears TO

DIR. Charles A. Mercer, who has Just
returned from the session of the Inter
national Medical Congress in Washing

about Mrs. Cleveland. whom he met
and chatted with at the reception ten
dered the doctors at the White House
Tuesday night. "She is the prettiest
woman / ever saw" said DR.. Mercer to
Dis11Gtch reporter yesterday,
"and her pictures don't begin to do her
justice. She and her husband received
standing near the door of the Green
room, and when introduced to her she
shook my hand vigorously and called me
by name. Her conversation is beauti-
fUl, well to the point-no supper
huOus words-and from her pronuncia-
tion one would think her a southerner.
She was dressed in blue silk, with
train, slightly trimmed with lace-nO-
thing gaudy, you know, but elegant.
The dress was low-necked, Of course,
but sleeveless, and she wore long gloves
extending above the elbow. She is OF
medium height and her figure is exqui-
site, while her manner is cordial and
gentle, her expression sweet and kind
ly, and she makes one feel at home at
once. She's fine woman"

Persecution.

We, the members OF the "Evangeli-

having watched with great interest the
correspondence between Rev. j. Is.

ing the charges made by said parties,
through the press, against DR.. haw-

appreciation OF DR.. Hawthorne's
course in the matter, and also to ex-
tend to him our cougratulation on the

And further: We are fully OF the

have been made against him but for
his heroic and Incorporating efforts
in behalf of prohibition aud against tho

We regard the whole thing rs a bit
Of persecution based upon i'll feeling

We heartily endorse DIR. Hawthorne

ment:
TO the HonordHc Prcsidcm md
Members of the Council:
Gentlemen have frequently urged
on individual members of the Council
the importance of telephone and fire
alarm connection between Manchester
and Richmond. The cost would be so
small compared with the benefits in
emergency that would occur that |
hope the proper committee will report
favorably in the premises. The second
suggestion as to a contingent fund has
been mentioned TO the President of
your body, but if adopted l hope the
funds will be placed in the hands OF a
Council committee who would report
any disbursements they might feel
called on to make. Very respectfully,
JOIN +. TAYLOR, Mayor.

ICE MAKING PLANT.
A Party from Cincinnati Visits
Sedalia to Establish an
EGGPLANT.

A party from Cincinnati was in the
city yesterday looking into the feast
bility of establishing an ice manufac-
tory here, and it is stated on good au-
thority that the plan he is proposing
excels any other now in operation.
He was much pleased with Sedalia's
inducements, and if a stock company
can be raised to furnish $50, 900, the
plant will be established. This
party, some time ago, estAb-
lished a plant in Wichita
Kan, and the people there are highly
elated with its success. 1t would be
a great boom for Sedalia to take hold
of this matter, and the BAzoo would
like to have it become established.
1t will take but vigorous and united
effort to bring about the proper re-
suit, and no stone should be left un-
turned. Up and at it.
